Good Turn 2016

Hi Troop 75 Ohana,

It was a gorgeous day for Good Turn. The weather was nice, sunny, slight trades. But very hot and humid! We got to Punchbowl around 10:40 a.m., we got off the bus and made our way to right outside the gate. We had a nice lunch. Then we headed to the main tent to get out of the sun, and to sit down. The program started at 1:00 p.m. The ceremony was a really touching tribute to our fallen hero's.

The program was less an hour. Then the thousands of Cub Scout's and Boy Scout's blanked the Cemetery like a huge wave. It was a site to behold as the flags and lei's we're put at each of the 38,000 graves. The Cemetery was covered very quickly. Our Cub Scout Brothers and the Scout's of Troop 75 did their Good Turn with honor. They conducted themselves with maturity and respect. They all did an outstanding job of paying tribute to our fallen hero's.

I just want say A HUGE MAHALOS to all the Scout's, Scouter's and Parents who came out this morning to honor and remember all those who made the ultimate sacrifice for out freedom. We had a nice turn out. Troop 75 and Pack 75 we're very well represented. Special Thanks to all the Adults for helping to chaperone our Scout's. Mahalos to Meadow Gold for the ice cream and juice.

Aloha,

Mr. Al

Eagle Court of Honor- Jeffrey and Brant

Congratulations Jeff and Brant

Hi Troop 75 Ohana,

What an awesome evening for an Eagle Court Of Honor! A great time was had by all who attended! As we honored, celebrated and reflected on the Scouting careers of Brant Yamamoto and Jeffrey Peroutka. They worked very hard and earned their passage into the elite group of Eagle Scout's! To earn and achieve Boy Scout's most coveted award, is a huge accomplishment in itself.

There was so much work that went into making this Eagle COH a huge success. From the food, to the awarding of the Eagle Metals. All the behind the scenes work that went on, the countless hours of running around and making sure all the i's are dotted, and all the t's are crossed. All the little things. It was a culmination of effort, hard work, and dedication by the Yamamoto and Peroutka Ohana! You guys did an outstanding job! And it probably was a sigh of relief as well!

The Troop is honored to have two more Eagle Scout's in our Ohana! Please join me in a well deserved CONGRATULATIONS to Brant Yamamoto and Jeffrey Peroutka. Very well done! We're all very proud of you guys! It was great to see the Eagle Scout's from the past. And their Families too! It was a great time of fellowship for Family, Friends and Fellow Scouters!

MUCH MAHALOS  to all the Scout's and Parents who came early to help set up and decorate the Cafeteria. You guys did an outstanding job! Mahalos to Damien Boncales for allowing us to use his Sound System. Thank You to Dan Wong for the Eagle Banners. Mahalos to all the Parents for your continued help, dedication and support!

Aloha,

Mr. Al
